One of the best visual novels I have ever played, I love the sound track, the art and the story. I have probably spent hours on this game; completing every route and have enjoyed all of it. Cant wait for v0.19 keep this amazing work coming.
Yeah i'ts really sad. Not the best thing but at least some fanfics tried to cover a ''happy'' ending (or a continuation) for best Wolf and best Chula Otter; last one I read was ''I want to talk about it'' you should check it out!.
I played this game a while back and fell in love with it. But i had to step away because honestly parts hit home so hard it was hard. And thats a good thing. The story was relatable in a way i wasn't expecting. Ill probably try to jump back in now that there have been updates.
I finished what was available of Rune's route over 6 hours ago, and I just can't get him off of my mind. Absolutely incredible Demo so far, can't wait for more updates!
Hi, I loved this vn! I especially loved the cozy atmosphere of the writing and the unique setting. However, there was a glitch when I was going through day one while picking all the Mikko-related options. His sprite got messed up during the scene at the common space. Here's a screenshot. Hope you'll fix it soon. Keep up the great work!
I have been following this game since last year, playing every character until the end so far, and the experience was nothing short of amazing. The characters are so real and well planned out, with everyone interested in different things, having their own self-doubts, and so on. All the songs I experienced throughout the game were all chill, cozy, and memorable. This is the type of game which inspires people to get out of their chairs and do anything productive, from going back to old hobbies or reaching out to try new things. And to the developers, thank you for delivering this wonderful gift to society for absolutely no cost, thank you all for putting your heart and soul into this game and making it as meaningful and memorable as it could be, and thank you for inspiring people to change for the better. All that is left to say is keep up the good work.
P.S. Love how you guys added Midwest emo in the newest update(big fan)
I love the soundtrack so much but can I ask what the name of the song Mikko played first was, the one with a more bubbly beat, It's not the "unknown (Mikko's soundtrack)" tho. Thankyou for the amazing Dawn Chorus!
Spoiler, I think: (clearer description)
specifically the one that's playing when Arvo mentions that Mikko has slight synesthesia (or so he says)
If you're asking where you can find it withing the game, It would be at the part where you can choose who to hang out with, like Jørgen and Travis, then if you leave without saying much to them you can head into Mikko's room and he'll show you the song.
If your asking like within game files, that's not my area of expertise, as I'm on mobile
Oh Thankyou for the info but it's more like a question of where can I find it online like youtube, Spotify or something because I can't see it in the Bandcamp playlist. I'm on mobile too hahaha.
You madmen actually did it. You made Mikko cuter and his route even more wholesome. This was the first time with any VN that I felt sad when I saw the "end of route" text pop up.
I can't express how high quality this game is. The art, the music, everything.
It will be uploaded here a month after the final Patreon update. Mid-month is a not 100% complete update, and that's what we uploaded to Patreon for now, because we didn't get to finish one scene for Jorgen before going on a week long break.
It's one of the best VN I've ever played I just love the characters ! I have to say Rune and Torulf are my favourites :) hope we'll have even more interaction with them ! I love your game <3
Okayy, right off the bat is the new and improved main menu. (Looks great >:3)
- The introduction is really different (dare I say better?) And noticed characters are bigger or closer rather. Mikko looks different.
- Yeap, they are closer. Most of them got a resprite, and Bjørn looks (handsome) really different.
- Save screen fits well with the rest now.
- Room 17 hasn't changed, or any or the rooms ( kinda nostalgic :3 )
- The cafeteria and some backgrounds look slightly different, there are new cgs, more expressions, aaaand OOH Day 2 :D
Overall, it's really story-rich and immersive despite the shortness of it all when put into perspective. Haven't really encountered bugs so far, and I hope that nobody won't. Loving it so far, (although I haven't checked the other bachelor's routes on Mikko's table but, yeah :b ) keep up the good work!
^ w^
Edit: Oh wait, the moon outside the terrace looks elongated, or the background overall, doesn't really bother me much, just pointing it out :b aight bye!
I like how there's symbolism for each character within the transition to Day 2 (except for Klaus, I realized I haven't done his route yet) and so far, Bjørn's the only one so far with that cute lil' animation at the bottom right ( wonder what the others would look like > w<).
No issues in grammar and spelling encountered, no bugs within the game (only that one bg that's stretched), but isn't really a problem.
does lake have a route? I tried to get one and got to the auto save ending but nothing really came of it and I don’t see the option under “jump to route”
someone tells you how to get to klaus's route farther down these posts. for mikko, just pick all his options from his room, then there is an option to visit the terrace that says lake, take that. finally when there is nothing to do but the piano part is as far as ive made it so. .
This game is amazing so far and I'm loving it!! I would support on here if I could, but I can't pay in euros. I need a dollar amount. Love you guys!! :D
This Torulf guy is really suspicious. When I first saw him, I thought he is gonna be that *playboy and flirty* types.. Turned out, I was really confuse!!!
He really confuse me because, he was *flirty* type, yes. But he seems *playboy* type because he easily get bored of something. But his behavior is really odd for those who has this *flirty and playboy* type.
He mention that he was straight-forward person and Arvo thought that this guy just want have some *fun* with him. BUT, it's Arvo thoughts, not Torulf *straight-forward* answer. Also, it's weird whether angle you see it. They just met and they already do *it*???!!!
I have a theory that this guy, ever met with Arvo but Arvo maybe forget it. Because it's already obvious that this guy just want Arvo, which can explain why he's a *playboy* type and ain't. He can't stay in one place, because he easily got bored. But, in the same time, he seems very, VERY generous when near Arvo because when he was alone. It's just.. irony.. If you see what he doing when he's really alone.. He's just keeping to himself..
So what I want to say is, there is a possibility that Torulf already meet Arvo somewhere in the past and somehow.. He seems like him and chasing him for a while(with his terrible flirty style, ofc).
I think that Torulf never met Arvo, what I really think is that he's interested in trying new things and by that I mean new people... he seems to have some history with Lake (I think they were fuckbuddies) and Arvo seems like just another naive and cute guy with whom he can have some fun (for a while) ... Torulf also seems very reluctant to talk about relationships (maybe he had some troubles in the past?), I imagine his route will have two paths, one where he might overcome his problems (if he has any) and settle down for one partner and the obvious one with tons of casual sex and nothing else.

Can anyone tell me how to get the first picture of Runes shower cg? I got the second one but am having a hard time trying too get the first one..
Ty. I did not think of that. Is that the only SFW image at the moment?
naw there is a lot of sfw cgs
I worded that wrong. I meant was it the only image you needed to be on sfw mode to unlock because i got every other image on nsfw mode.
then i think so
insightful stuff ethan
Hi Keo! Hope you are doing alright. Is there a Bjørn update in the next months? Have been missing my sweet bear since October's update 😊
Yes, the next month I'm working on his update :)
Happy to hear it! Sorry for not replying sooner. Stay safe and healthy!
Just played the Mikko update and I loved it! I have a thing for playing a game/update like weeks after it's released, kind of stupid, but whatever.
One of the best visual novels I have ever played, I love the sound track, the art and the story. I have probably spent hours on this game; completing every route and have enjoyed all of it. Cant wait for v0.19 keep this amazing work coming.
I'm in love with the story and artwork of this game its such a nice experience after I played through the emotionally scarring game Echo
Also wondering when v0.19 will be released to itch.io because idk if it's my small monkey brain or its just not clear to me.
:)
It says that v0.19 will be released on itch.io the 28th of March, can't wait to play Lake's route ^^
PD: I totally agree, the artwork and the story of this VN are incredible.
PD 2: Sorry for the late reply D:
That's 3 days after my birthday, love to see it. :D
Yeah this VN really helps if you played Echo before... Even more if you're a Leo x Chase Shipper like me.
that being the only route I did it hit hard I was so sad after no matter what ending you get it always bad in some cases
Yeah i'ts really sad. Not the best thing but at least some fanfics tried to cover a ''happy'' ending (or a continuation) for best Wolf and best Chula Otter; last one I read was ''I want to talk about it'' you should check it out!.
(Spoiler?)
Kudzu when you pick Leo over him
I played this game a while back and fell in love with it. But i had to step away because honestly parts hit home so hard it was hard. And thats a good thing. The story was relatable in a way i wasn't expecting. Ill probably try to jump back in now that there have been updates.
I finished what was available of Rune's route over 6 hours ago, and I just can't get him off of my mind. Absolutely incredible Demo so far, can't wait for more updates!
When the game is finished fully, will it be exclusive to patreon or also get uploaded here?
The current plan is to release the finished game on itch.io in pay what you want model.
Glad to know it will be fully released in that model hoping patreon supporters will get cut content ect.
Devon route is so cute, he is such an angel, can't wait for more updates in his route
The logo,cover and text reminded me of Life Is Strange,it kinda makes me feel nostalgic
The life is strange game series is so good
One of my favourite games.
I can agree with your statement good sir.
I should not have went with Mikko first D:
Now playing for anyone else feels like I'm stabbing that poor boy in the heart ;w;
Aaaaaaaaaa i feel the same ;w; i really like his route
(Spoilers? Maybe)
Devon's route honestly hits really close to home especially since I'm from Ohio and had similar experiences.
All in all
Devon needs a big hug
(I can't believe I failed so hard at typing this, I need me some sleep)
mikko my beloved

I need to stop playing this game at night, the soundtrack just makes me pass out.
(The soundtrack is beautiful)
I love the soundtrack so much but can I ask what the name of the song Mikko played first was, the one with a more bubbly beat, It's not the "unknown (Mikko's soundtrack)" tho. Thankyou for the amazing Dawn Chorus!
Spoiler, I think: (clearer description)

I think
Ooh Thankyou! Where do you think can I find it?
If you're asking where you can find it withing the game, It would be at the part where you can choose who to hang out with, like Jørgen and Travis, then if you leave without saying much to them you can head into Mikko's room and he'll show you the song.

Ahh, my bad
I'm pretty sure you can download the pc version, then unzip/extract it, and find the music file(s) in there.
Probably
But I dont think you can find it on Spotify or YouTube
the writing style in general is just marvelous👌
You madmen actually did it. You made Mikko cuter and his route even more wholesome. This was the first time with any VN that I felt sad when I saw the "end of route" text pop up.
I can't express how high quality this game is. The art, the music, everything.
So Mikko's update is today right ? Is it a choice to release it on valentine's day ? :0
Final update on Patreon? So.. we won't get free version in Itch.io? :(
It will be uploaded here a month after the final Patreon update. Mid-month is a not 100% complete update, and that's what we uploaded to Patreon for now, because we didn't get to finish one scene for Jorgen before going on a week long break.
Ohh, ok
Mikko update on valentine??
Is Torulf getting a new sprite?
I wanna give Devon a big hug, he deserves good things.
Wish there will be a Travis route
This is really good! Out of curiosity though, is Mikko going to be getting an update soon, or will we have to wait longer for more with him?
Edit: Should've checked the twitter before posting this, lol
Love this game!! Keep up the good work, and I'll come back in a few updates to see the progress!!
very good game
It's one of the best VN I've ever played I just love the characters ! I have to say Rune and Torulf are my favourites :) hope we'll have even more interaction with them ! I love your game <3
I haven't played this since last year! What would you say is the most fun thing that's new? Or proud?
Neverminded, it's all awesome and different! It's like magic!
You guys gonna do anything for jørgen?
Jørgen Windcaller, you mean like from the hit 2011 game The Elder scolls V: Skyrim - Legendary Edition / Special Edition / VR ??
Your username made this comment all the more funnier
Yes, writing new content for him this month :)
Aighttt let's see how much have changed after 14 updates >:3
Okayy, right off the bat is the new and improved main menu. (Looks great >:3)
- The introduction is really different (dare I say better?) And noticed characters are bigger or closer rather. Mikko looks different.
- Yeap, they are closer. Most of them got a resprite, and Bjørn looks (handsome) really different.
- Save screen fits well with the rest now.

- The cafeteria and some backgrounds look slightly different, there are new cgs, more expressions, aaaand OOH Day 2 :D
Overall, it's really story-rich and immersive despite the shortness of it all when put into perspective. Haven't really encountered bugs so far, and I hope that nobody won't. Loving it so far, (although I haven't checked the other bachelor's routes on Mikko's table but, yeah :b ) keep up the good work!
^ w^
Edit: Oh wait, the moon outside the terrace looks elongated, or the background overall, doesn't really bother me much, just pointing it out :b aight bye!
Finished everything now, longing for more...
I like how there's symbolism for each character within the transition to Day 2 (except for Klaus, I realized I haven't done his route yet) and so far, Bjørn's the only one so far with that cute lil' animation at the bottom right ( wonder what the others would look like > w<).
No issues in grammar and spelling encountered, no bugs within the game (only that one bg that's stretched), but isn't really a problem.
Looking forward to the future updates! ^ w^
There's an animation like that for Mikko in the newest update, released on Patreon only so far, we hope to have at least one per character!
does lake have a route? I tried to get one and got to the auto save ending but nothing really came of it and I don’t see the option under “jump to route”
He does, but the doesn't have much content yet unfortunately!There's none in Day 2 yet, so jump to route isn't implemented for him.
ah, I understand then! I got scared and thought I did it wrong… Thanks
Can someone tell how to do Klaus's and mikko's route correctly I don't know how to do it:p
someone tells you how to get to klaus's route farther down these posts. for mikko, just pick all his options from his room, then there is an option to visit the terrace that says lake, take that. finally when there is nothing to do but the piano part is as far as ive made it so. .
Is there a way to change your name mid game?
id say without editing the games files, probably not
How many days are complete? Or if it’s easier to answer do any routes go past day 2? I just started and got to day 2 but can’t wait to go further!
I think some routes go into day 2, I don't think any of them actually go past that day.
This game is amazing so far and I'm loving it!! I would support on here if I could, but I can't pay in euros. I need a dollar amount. Love you guys!! :D
